"that's a shame, you should have considered it when you last downsized the workforce. I'll be back in a month"

You mean in a single dose? I'll have ~~700mg~~ 1000mg over three hours often

I have only heard of melatonin for jet lag and changing shift work

I don't believe it's good for sleep in general given those two uses are about messing with circadian cycles and that's not going to help someone without otherwise good sleep habits

I have felt vertigo in high places in regular 3D games like Minecraft. I have to sit for VR Ghost Busters

I can't imagine how immersed I'll be in more immersive VR

Which standard does Canada use?

I have a friend who's a new PM (in scaled agile). He isn't up on expectation management.

We have a process where we request data from another agency which takes "from 7 seconds to 12 days"

And of course he tells people that. And of course they hear "7 seconds"

I have told him that if the SLA is 12 days, say "less than 12 days"

Indeed, however the Americans stand out in the anglosphere

Wombats, koala, kangaroo, and emu eggs are easier to catch/find and were the main meat in places where those are common

I would rather Australian risks than those of bears and big cats

Aussie snakes try to keep away from people, they aren't aggressive.

Our spiders are so like those elsewhere (compare Redback to black widow)

You're unlikely to see a kangaroo in water. If you do, keep away from it just like you keep away from wild animals anyway

You're very unlikely to see one in the wild, they're nocturnal and their burrow entries are under creek banks

In zoos they live in the nocturnal animal section, probably swimming

They said 1st as an abbreviation of first (it's a normal abbreviation 1st, 2nd, 3rd ... 7th abbreviate first, second, third ... seventh)

If you want to be both wrong and confusing

If you want to use correct English and be clear don't use ordinals: Say "index 0, index 1" etc

Save ordinals for contexts without indices: the first time through this loop, the last record"
